Dry Ranch Road emergency access bottleneck
Summary
One access point serves the whole Heartland Drive/Solutions Way/Dry Ranch Road area, and fire flow can't reach the highest lots. Improvements are coming with this subdivision, but a true second access depends on future deals with other property owners.

Impact analysis
All properties in the area get a better emergency gravel route once improvements are done.
Until a second access exists, the whole area remains dependent on a single bottleneck route in an emergency.

Planning Commission — September 28, 2026
Residents flagged a blind corner where Dry Ranch Road meets Brundage Lane, with trees and bushes blocking views of traffic moving 40 mph. They also noted trucks blocking the gravel road and trailers parked in the roadway. Staff will check with county and WYDOT officials about jurisdiction.
